Round 1

Problem 1

  • Round 1

Consider a regular polygon with 2007 vertices. The natural numbers 1,2,…,40141,2, \ldots, 4014 shall be distributed across the vertices and edge midpoints such that for each side the sum of its three numbers (two end points, one side center) has the same value. Show that such an assignment is possible.

Problem 3

  • Round 1

In triangle ABCABC points EE and FF lie on sides ACAC and BCBC such that segments AEAE and BFBF have equal length, and circles formed by A,C,FA,C,F and by B,C,E,B,C,E, respectively, intersect at point CC and another point D.D. Prove that that the line CDCD bisects ∠ACB.\angle ACB.

Problem 4

  • Round 1

Let aa be a positive integer.

How many non-negative integer solutions x does the equation

⌊xa⌋=⌊xa+1⌋\lfloor \frac{x}{a}\rfloor = \lfloor \frac{x}{a+1}\rfloor

have?

⌊ ⌋\lfloor ~ \rfloor ---> Floor Function.

Problem 6

  • Round 2

At the start of the game there are rr red and gg green pieces/stones on the table. Hojoo and Kestutis make moves in turn. Hojoo starts. The person due to make a move, chooses a colour and removes kk pieces of this colour. The number kk has to be a divisor of the current number of stones of the other colour. The person removing the last piece wins. Who can force the victory?

Problem 7

  • Round 2

A set EE of points in the 3D space let L(E)L(E) denote the set of all those points which lie on lines composed of two distinct points of E.E. Let TT denote the set of all vertices of a regular tetrahedron. Which points are in the set L(L(T))?L(L(T))?
